Smile IDI diesel Clutch

Just wondering, I want to install a new clutch, and im looking at a dual disc setup, but how would it feel, from a sigle disc? I use the truck for towing and pulling. I have a 30 ft gooseneck, Just askin if the dual disc set up would be overkill. 1990, f-350, 7.3 IDI, 9,000 pounds. Basicaly im looking for a HEAVY DUTY clutch Does anybody have any ideas to where I could look?

Whats the advantage of this single mass setup, as far as the feel of the clutch and how it preforms?

reliability. when the dual mass comes apart, and it will, you will wish you got the single mass.

not sure what you are asking. single mass and solid flywheel is the same thing. and in my rig the pedal acutally got a little nicer to push.
